Food was okay wish there was more options Employees were to serious but overall it's an okay place read more

Have a lot of choices of Chinese food. The salmon and tuna Sashimi tasted very fresh and thinly sliced. Every time they refill the food, they overfill the tray. Definitely would go back again read more

This is the only Asian buffet I know of in the area and I always keep making the mistake the recent reviews are accurate. Still tastes like the meat they use are months old. Price isnt that cheap either. Nasty, dont do it. read more

I really enjoyed Asia Buffet! The food is delicious and always fresh -- as soon as a dish runs out, they refill it right away. There's a great variety of options, from sushi and shrimp to chicken, noodles, and more. Everything tastes fresh and well-seasoned. The place is clean, the staff is friendly, the price is very reasonable, and the atmosphere is nice and family-friendly. Definitely worth checking out if you love Asian food or want a great buffet experience! read more

Excellent selection of food, higher end choices and less expensive. Food is hot, piled high and delicious.

My Chinese girlfriend dragged me here and it didn't disappoint. I was surprised at how cheap it was for the selection of food they had. It would've been nice if they refilled my water but maybe that's just their subtle way of saying you're done eating and need to leave. With their low prices they wouldn't be in business if people stayed there for hours pigging out I'm assuming. read more

Asia Buffet - Buffets Near Me - Lake Forest, California

This place was incredible. Was jonsing for a buffet and we were close by and gave it a shot. The spread of food was incredible and the quality was above average!! Buffets are always hit and miss but man this place was hitting! The sushi was all right but the shellfish is what I kept getting more and more of. The interior was clean the stations were clean which made me trust the food more. We were seated right away and this is my new favorite OC buffet. read more

I had the best time at Asia Buffet. It almost feels like you're doing a crime; like you're getting away with something? I grew up in 90s Las Vegas so buffets will always have a little piece of my heart anyway, but this one is actually solid! I was especially impressed with the fresh fish to choose from, the tasty sushi, and lots of fresh veggies too. Fried rice, noodles, and potstickers are always going to bangers. I love that the pricing for kids is their age x $1.99 -- perfect formula. We are a family of 4 and ate for under $100 (before tip) and left super happy. Not many places you can say that anymore. read more

Asia Buffet - Kids going nuts on the desserts. - Buffets Near Me - Lake Forest, California

Today I go to eat buffet but Food not better at Asia Buffet in la palma buena park... never come back again.

Yes I've been Chinese all my life and I can confidently say Asia Buffet is one of the best if not the BEST in my years in Orange county. Why? The selection has a wide variety, the sushi rolls were better than average and pretty good selection (don't expect high grade rolls!!! If you go in realistic, you'll be content). Staff was better than typical buffet joints, foods were kept hot and replenished up to par. Good was tasty and good. Ignore those weak stomach ppl who whine about throwing up, really?? Every buffet place always have reviews talking about vomiting. Ridiculous. One thing I loved was not only a diverse group of customers, but specifically there were a lot of elderly Chinese customers seemingly enjoying their lunch. That's a GOOD SIGN!!!! read more

This is a solid Asian buffet place in south county. Came on a weekday evening and I was pleasantly surprised of the good food. If you come here thinking you're gonna get a Vegas level buffet, then go to Vegas where you'll pay an arm and a leg for their buffets. Food kept coming out of the kitchen on a regular basis. Service was ok. I would definitely come back again. read more

I came here a couple weeks ago to get food to go. We had never tried it out before my dad had mentioned it so I went with my daughter and we got three to go boxes full of food. I paid the lady cash and as I was leaving, I asked her for the receipt. She printed the receipt and handed it to me and I said thank you. walked out when I got home, I looked at the receipt. She charged me for drinks that we did not get. Don't trust the girl with the pink short hair they will rip you off. Make sure you ask for your receipt before you leave and take a look at it and see what they're charging you because I will never go back first experience was really bad and the food was not good at all. we ended up throwing away most of what we got. read more

Fresh, tasty not expensive. Love this place. I would definitely recommend this place.

This place is what I would call a good ol reliable. They have various selection of dishes from different cuisines like chinese japanese etc. I frequent this place for lunch as it is around $20 pp and I can get all the usuals you would expect at an asian cuisine buffet. While I wouldn't call it a fancy buffet, it has all the traditional dishes like orange chicken, string green beans, and thin noodles. Additionally, their talapia is always good and their sushi which I don't eat too much of is decent as well. Their stir fried dishes are pretty good. read more

Honestly it was everything I expected. The options were great, the meats were well cooked and seasoned. The sugar donuts never miss especially fresh and hot. The sushi was delicious I didn't like the albacore one and I didn't try the sashimi. Their salad bar had a lot of options like fruits and jello and things my kids really enjoyed. There's a lot of parking and no wait on a Sunday afternoon. Keep in mind I knew I was not coming to a gourmet buffet. This is the perfect pig out place with options and great for kids to try new things. The staff could be friendlier, I also didn't appreciate my check being brought to my table before we even got dessert. Makes you feel rushed. But overall the food was great for the price. $28 for adults and $18 for kids 10 and under. Drinks extra $3 almost per person. read more

Good is very good but excessive expensive even with discount. No service , they keep food on buffet very full. Very noisy. Think is time to replace the drinking glasses. . I go to another Asia buffet price better and buffet at good food not so much price cheaper during g couple days week . I sometimes go and buy hot and sour soup to go . Very delicious read more

The in-laws wanted to try a buffet restaurant. They came across this place called Asia Buffet. It is located in Lake Forest, CA. For my wife and I, it was our first time dining at a buffet in over a year. We are not usually fans of Asian buffets. This restaurant was not bad, though. Everything about our experience here was fine. The prices were reasonable. The dining area was clean. The food areas were kept clean and full as well. Service was fine. Most importantly, the food was decent. They had a good selection of food to choose from. For the price that you pay, I think that both the taste and selection of food was a good deal. Would not hesitate to recommend Asia Buffet to anyone. read more

We came here on a Sunday afternoon because my mom was craving Asian buffet. The place looks very small on the outside, but it's a decent size inside. We came around 4:30 pm and was seated immediately and the place was actually quite crowded. I was surprised since it was still so early for dinner. A server came over and asked us for drinks and placed silverware on the table. Otherwise we didn't really see them again until our plates were really stacked. They were quite slow bussing tables. The food is actually not bad at all. I actually quite liked everything that I tried. Even my mom liked everything and she's super picky. The price was decent for everything they had. All in all I had a mostly positive experience and would be willing to come back read more

We've gone to the Asia Buffet for years. On our latest visit, the array and taste of the food was outstanding. Given our appetites, you just can't beat the value for the price. Food is hot, fresh, well prepared, and delicious. Go hungry! And be aware, if you haven't visited before, that besides Chinese food, there is an array of tasty deserts, serve-yourself ice cream, a sushi bar, a very fresh salad bar, fresh fruits, and something for everyone. GREAT VALUE. read more

For a quick fix, it helps to have a place like this in the area. Total abundance in selections, categories and flavors. The place was actually packed and they had to send people to the other room. The seafood selection had so many choices. I love the fact that they did not wait for the trays to be emptied, always filling to the brim. read more

It's a good sign when the majority of the customers at a Chinese buffet are not only Asians, but Asians from the old country. The spread is generous. I stuck to seafood, vegetables and fresh fruits. I make my own dipping sauce for the shrimps, fried calamari. They give you plenty of condiments from soy sauce, hot pepper, chili oil, lemon, mustard... The steamed fish filets and cajun shrimp and mussels are excellent. I am usually too full for pastries so sliced pineapples and oranges are my go to at the end. Pro tip: come when they open at 11:00 so everything is freshly cooked. It's located right across from Home Depot and the public library. Cleanliness is impeccable. The wait staff is very quick to remove used plates. A solid buffet in South OC. read more

I have been eating lunch and dinner at this Chinese Buffet restaurant for many many years. There are more than 100 varieties, most of customers can find something of their favorite foods, always tasty and fresh. I have gathered with group of friends ( 20 to 30 persons each times) having lunch at this Asia Buffet, and all my friends enjoyed very much. All servers are friendly and work quickly. read more

My family and I went to Asia Buffet yesterday and it was my first time eating here. I haven't been to many buffets but I think there was a good variety of Chinese and Japanese foods to choose from like dumplings, sushi, orange chicken, egg drop soup, etc. I also liked how there was seafood available from crab legs and shrimp to scallops and oysters prepared in different ways. There are different kinds of deserts too (some can be seen in the picture). The price is affordable and there's a good amount of seating inside. The service was great as the staff cleared up empty/completed plates from our table pretty fast. I'm giving 3 stars because I think the food was good but not anything great. I think it's still a good place to try if you're craving a buffet with different Chinese and Japanese foods but don't expect anything out of this world! read more

Asia Buffet - Buffet - Buffets Near Me - Lake Forest, California

Service is great. We were sat at a pretty quiet section which was great. Food was great, although it was a little expensive for 2 considering there isn't a lot of food options. read more

Great Value, about $22 for lunch and lots of choices. They tend to specialize in seafood so lots of sushi etc to choose from.

The food was tasty, and there is a variety of options. The staff are nice and attentive, and the place is clean. However, the women's bathroom, while not smelling like urine, had a sticky and dirty floor. read more

This place is clean and well lighted. I love everything!!! I would have given them an easy 5/5 if it weren't for the sushi and rolls coz they felt dry and colder than the usual temperature. The price is much cheaper than the buffet places I went to in LA (king buffet and shiki buffet) but the food selection is much less, hence the price. Will recommend definitely for a quick lunch or dinner. But if you want to impress someone, there are better options out there. read more

man.... it's a buffet, like, it's a buffet. kind of sus of the food, like it's been sitting out but that's what you get when you go to a buffet. the green beans are good but like i'm sus of everthing idk.... not gonna tell anyone to not go there like it's a fine buffet. read more

The food was okay for it's price especially for ayce. Their crab legs are good and their beef.

Food tastes good enough, but an hour after leaving was glad I was near a restroom due to a bad case of the runs. We were there on a Saturday afternoon around 1:00. This is the third time in 2 years this has happened to me after eating there. It's very rare that I get this condition, so I'm convinced it was more than just coincidence. I had the egg rolls, seafood salad, crab salad, and sushi. I've lost complete trust in their food quality, and don't intend to go there again. read more

It was very good I love the ribs and good service food is amazing if ur looking for all u can eat seafood this is da spot

I live in the area & used to go here a lot. This place is going downhill. I just noticed that they have many health violations, latest 11/25/2025. It explains why I have stomach issues after I eat there. There are a couple of the waitresses there that usually serve me & they have treated me fine. They have hired some new employees who are a bit pushy. They try & rush you out of the place at times. Other times they are invisible & you cant get your check for 15-30 minutes. Even when they come, they wait on top of you to sign the check. I dont have to say where I told her to go. They didnt earn a tip & I didnt leave one on this occasion last week. The prices here have gone way up, yet the quality has remained the same or has gotten worse. They dont offer a senior discount unless you are over 65. Heres another issue, I always leave a tip for the waitresses when I pay, but apparently they arent giving it to their employees because they rarely include it when I authorize them to pay. Ive found a few alternative places to go so I dont have plans on going back. read more

Great food and everything was fresh. Fast service and trash and used plates were always cleared promptly

We usually go here when eating with my husband on his lunch break. When my son was younger he brought his stuff animal dog to join us for lunch. He accidentally left the little dog there. It had probably been a MONTH or TWO before we went back for another lunch date. As we were leaving our son noticed a little dog sitting on the counter by the register. He said "Mom! That's my dog!" As we were walking out. I had no idea what he was talking about but he insisted on going back in. When I went back in I recognized the little dog immediately. What a kind thing for them to do. They had that little dog waiting for us on the counter for so long and I will always remember that. read more

Came here because we wanted a variety of Chinese food the parking lot looked full and the place was packed.. they said my 9 year old would be $13 and at the ends they said oh no$16.99 and on the website it said $2.00 kids under 10 for 2 adults and a child it was over $80 and that to me is a rip off they def racial profiled us the food was very greasy no salt no taste the drinks are separate 3.99 when the wait said it was 2.00! Don't recommend this place don't come rip offs!!!! read more

The food was ok, but you get what you pay for, so for the price point I felt that we did get the value for what we paid. Typical buffet level food. They did have good variety, there were a lot of options. The food was kept full, they were great about refilling items on the food stations, but not our water at the table. It was busy, which is always a good sign, the restaurant was full and people still coming in and out as we left. Would be a good place to take a larger group without breaking the bank and it has a lot of options so everyone will find something they like. read more

Food was great, service ok, price is great, great family atmosphere. Thank you for the service and attention

I randomly found this place because I was in the mood for a buffet. What a surprise! The Chinese food is as good as at any restaurant. I tried it for Sunday lunch. The selection is decent, and there's a lady who always makes sure that no tray is empty! The service is quick too :) read more
